Lance Seaman, 18, simply couldn't resist the charm of video game based figurines. After supposedly stealing his grandmother's credit card, he went on to spend US$ 10,087.83 buying video game merchandise online.

Last May 17, Seaman confessed to the police that he stole his grandma's computer and camcorder then pawned them for US$ 200. Twenty boxes of Final Fantasy figurines were also found in his hotel bedroom on the 6300 block of Southern Avenue, further making the charges against him stronger.

He was arrested last Wednesday night and agreed to be interviewed by the police. Fellow gamers, let this be a lesson for everyone. Don't steal from your grandmother to buy video game stuff to avoid getting busted.

    What an idiot. Hope he gets more than a slap on the wrist. Why you would steal for video games is beyond me let alone from family. And let's not forget that it wasn't like $100 or something but $10,000- that's just insane.

    This reminds me of the time I did this... Wait! Did I say that out loud? But I would feel like an a$$ if I took a credit card from my grandma and didn't even use it.

    Oh my god, over $10,000!? That guy's got a problem! I wouldn't spend more than 100, otherwise...well, they'd be less likely to notice I guess and it wouldn't be too hard to pay it back.

    Plus, from your grandma? That's kinda harsh isn't it?

    Wow... This guy is messed up. Who steals from their grandmother? Hopefully this guy learns his lesson and doesn't steal again. I feel sorry for his grandmother. Over $10,000 lost on video games.

    I would never take anything from my grandparents. I just couldn't do it.

    But $10,000? That's pushing the envelope right there.
